I just saw a legal notification during a talk show this afternoon, and when I Googled it, there were lots of hit. Apparently, there have been cases of boys given Risperdal developing female breasts? At this point, I don't know what dosage or duration of the drug has manifested this side effect, but in the event you're entirely unaware, thought I'd pass it along. This is one of those drugs that was at one time prescribed for my DS when he was in the depths of his worst, life-changing exacerbation. We used it once, and it knocked him out for an entire day . . . all he did was sleep. So we didn't use it again. The prescribing doctor did not once mention this potential side effect, either.

Since a baby, on of her main symptoms is she screams and gets REALLY aggressive when I start a medication or supplement and then she scream and gets aggressive when I stop the medication. It's like an explosion goes off in her head and she can not control herself. My question to you is....would it be a good idea to decrease her bactrim to create that scenario to see if anything helpful shows up on EEG that she is currently having? All previous EEG's come back abnormal and prone to seizures but no seizures! Dr. N. is not around to ask but the attending physician is. Not sure she will even get what I am talking about thought. What would you do???? I want to learn as much as possible on this hospital stay!!! Thanks!
